David thanks. It pushed without any complaints. jlowe@jlowe-lilybuntu2:~/lilypond-git/build$ git push origin HEAD:refs/heads/dev/staging Counting objects: 13, done. Delta compression using up to 7 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (7/7), done. Writing objects: 100% (7/7), 651 bytes, done. Total 7 (delta 6), reused 0 (delta 0) To ssh://pkx1...@git.sv.gnu.org/srv/git/lilypond.git 2f1556b..b5f1985 HEAD -> dev/staging ... However how can I view dev/staging? git remote show dev/staging gives me an error. I tried git remote show HEAD:/etc... and that failed. So I pushed it somewhere :) but cannot check it's ok. -- -- James _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
